Crow also addressed her controversial exit from The X Factor, which saw her sent home after judge Nicole Scherzinger sent the results to deadlock when she struggled to decide whether Crow or Marcus Canty, the other contestant in the bottom two, should leave.

When asked if she'd been surprised at the public reaction to her exit, she said: "Yes, very surprised. I've been walking around and people see me and say, 'I'm so sorry you lost and got booted out'. I'm like, 'It's okay!'"

As for who will win the show, the teenager said that she couldn't choose between remaining acts Melanie Amaro, Josh Krajcik, Chris Rene and Marcus Canty, who all performed on Wednesday night's semi-final.

"I look back on it and all of them mean the same to me but in different ways. I left with Melanie crying as hard as she could. I called her yesterday and she was like, 'I miss you!' She was like a big sister to me," she said.

"And then poor Marcus was very upset when he saw me go and I felt really bad because he should have been happy for himself - he made it and I was so proud of him and I love him, he's amazing."
